ADMINISTRATION William P. Miller President "Weber College is on the threshold of the greatest expansion in its history. During the next decode Weber will experience a greater period of growth, both in its size and its services, than has occurred at any time in the past. "Enrollment at Weber College will likely increase two to three times during the next ten years. At the present time there are twice as many children eight years of age as there are those of eighteen years of age within twenty miles of the campus. This potential doubling of freshman students when added to a steady increase in the general population, plus the added upper division courses, makes the estimated enrollment increase of two to three times very realistic. The authorization granted by the 1959 Legislature for expansion to a four-year degree-granting institution opens the doors to wider instructional offerings that have been denied Weber in the past. Many hundreds of individuals in the Weber College area will now be able to continue their upper division college work. " Weber has been a local and national leader in the field of junior college education. The opportunity is now available to expand this leadership to a still wider field of influence. How well we accept this challenge will be measured by our accomplishments during the next few years." William P. Miller Guardians and shapers of the endless line have been such officials as dean of faculty, registrar, deans of men and women, school treasurer, superintendent of buildings and grounds, chairmen of divisions, heads of departments. As during this crucial past year the lifeline of Weber College has been shaped for the four-year school, these persons, with the President, have been responsible for actual molding of the greater institution. These dedicated educators have been impelled by a vision Robert A. Clarke Dean of Faculty William D. Strafford Dean of Men "The growth of Weber College to four years," says Dr. Robert A. Clarke, dean of faculty, "means a greater investment in the people it serves, and in turn permits more rapid development of area economy and better jobs for its graduates. Higher education is an investment in people, which pays rich dividends in increased creativeness and skills and better citizenship. To the individual come dividends in higher income and greater service." "The new campus," according to Wallace D. Baddley, buildings and grounds superintendent, "has a possibility of becoming one of the most beautiful campuses in the West. Situated as it is, with the mountains to the east and the valley and lake to the west, it presents an ideal setting. The present campus, of course, is only a beginning of what it will become in years ahead." Dr. William Stratford, dean of men, forsees that an especially significant campus addition will be the union building. "It will provide facilities for gracious parties and many types of social activities and meetings far beyond our present scope." Predicting a doubling of the studentbody in less than ten years, registrar Clarisse Hall expresses the hope that Weber will continue to be known as "The Friendly School." Marva H.
